Pros

Great culture; lots of openness. Awesome colleagues that are hard-working but also fun, interesting, and helpful. Lots of interesting technical challenges to work on. Still a young and relatively small company. Lots of chances to make a large impact. Great holiday gift this year! Hackathons. Annual ski trip.

Cons

No 401k matching yet. The health plan is not as good as those offered by big companies like Google or Microsoft. The performance review and promotion process is a bit opaque.

Advice to Management

Don't let the IPO change things. The company was functioning great and growing great pre-IPO. Don't let the increased scale and size of things change the wonderful culture.
